The Killing Kind
“—GEORGE HERBERT, “THE CHURCH-PORCH”
THE SEARCH FOR SANCTUARY Extract from the postgraduate thesis of Grace Peltier . . .
There are few surviving photographs of Faulkner (certainly none taken after 1963) and few records of his past, so our knowledge of him is largely limited to the evidence of those who heard him speak or encountered him in the course of one of his healing missions.
He was a tall man with long dark hair and a high forehead, blue eyes beneath dark, straight eyebrows, ...and pale, almost translucent skin. He dressed in the garb of a working man——jeans, sometimes overalls, rough cotton shirts, boots——except when he was preaching. At those times he favored a simple black suit with a white collarless shirt buttoned to the neck. He wore no jewelry and his only concession to religious adornment was an ornate gold crucifix that hung around his neck as he spoke. Those who had the opportunity to examine it closely describe it as extremely finely made, with tiny faces and limbs carved into the body of the cross.MoreLess
